Well Done Conservatives

Hi Peter.

 

Forcing people to work until 70 isn't living within our means. Neither is cutting weekend wages.

 

And it particularly has nothing to do with paying a generous paid parental leave to high income earners.

 

Tony Abbott just got it all wrong in the 2014 budget. He can't fix anything because he doesn't understand free market economics.

 

Instead of trying to lower debt with economic growth he tried to lower it with austerity. Dumb idea!

 

So it was a spectacular fail... which is why his 2015 budget was a completely different narrative.

 

The debt is now MUCH higher because people stopped spending their money and economic growth slowed.

 

You know when the reserve bank had to lower rates to ridiculously low levels that the economy had turned to crap.

 

By contrast, the Turnbull Govt is starting to return lower deficit levels than the Abbott Govt.

 

They finally realised you will never have debt reduction unless you fund it with growth.

 

The main driver to growth is confidence. No confidence - no growth. Confidence starts with wage growth.

 

You will never have growth for as long as you have an inept PM hell bent on lowering workers wages.

 

That's why it's time to change the Govt - partly to restore confidence but mostly to enable the Coalition to reset their ideology to suit the 21st century and reconnect with working people. And that will never happen under Abbott.
